Memory system, initializing

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 26 other vehicles, including the 2009 Volkswagen Golf, 2008 Volkswagen Golf, 2007 Volkswagen Golf, 2006 Volkswagen Golf, and 2006 Volkswagen GTI. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:

All data stored for the seat and mirror settings will be lost when the vehicle battery is disconnected.
This data will be retained in future control modules even after the battery has been disconnected.
Each new setting stored on the same button will erase the previous data.
It is not possible to store settings on the memory buttons if the red switch is switched-off (switch protrudes).
The battery voltage must not be below 10.5 V. Otherwise the system detects low voltage and will store a malfunction in the DTC memory.

The following test steps must be performed for the initialization:

Open driver's door.
Switch on ignition.
Then move the seat backrest forwards as far as stop.

This position will be recorded for reference when the stop limit switch-off occurs.
